BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — A Minneapolis man who allegedly threw a 5-year-old boy off the third floor of the Mall of American in Bloomington, Minnesota, Friday was officially charged in the case on Monday.

Suspect Emmanuel Aranda, 24, was charged with attempted premeditated first-degree murder and is scheduled to make a first court appearance Tuesday in Hennepin County where prosecutors said they'll ask for a $2 million bond, according to the Pioneer Press.

Court documents revealed Aranda told police he first went to the mall Thursday with the intention of killing an adult, but that it did not "work out," the Press reported.

Police responded to the scene shortly after 10 a.m. and found that the child had fallen from the third level to the first level, Bloomington Police Chief Jeff Potts said in a Friday afternoon press conference. The child was critically injured, he said.

Witnesses told police that a man had either pushed or thrown the child from the third floor and then fled on foot. Police found Aranda inside the mall and arrested him, Potts said.
